Property code: OC-94069

On the edge of Ullswater, discover a canine-compatible cottage that’s made for your next romantic getaway. The beautifully presented bolthole has been furnished with two guests and two dogs in mind, perfect for your little human and hound gang to enjoy a stay filled with long walks and superb scenery. Located on a former working farm with four further properties, the abode lends itself perfectly to those holidaying with other pet lovers and their canine companions.

Enter via the courtyard and into the bijou property where the whole pack has space to unwind. Put feet (and paws) up in the lounge area, a space with a sofa and Sky TV for enjoying those evenings in. Delicious dinners are best prepared in the adjacent kitchen, a dine-in spot where you’re sure to find a desperate-looking dog begging for scraps. As the night draws in, step into the bathroom where underfloor heating and a bath allow for cosy nights of soaking in the bubbles, before retiring to the sumptuous king-size bedroom. Outside, the courtyard is undisturbed and utterly peaceful, ideal for sitting with a morning coffee whilst Fido enjoys their first stretch of the day.

Take a morning stroll down to the edge of Ullswater (1 mile) and embark on your day’s activities. Nearby find the Aira Force Waterfalls (4 miles), a particular beauty spot, and the neighbouring hills of Great Mell Fell (5.5 miles) and Little Mell Fell (1.5 miles). More imposing mountains can also be found nearby, including Skiddaw (18.5 miles), Blencathra (11 miles) and Helvellyn (7 miles) - only to be embarked on by the most energetic of pets! For the more restful pups, jump in the car for day trips to Keswick (14 miles) and Penrith (8 miles).

The cottage is great for those seeking peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings. The owner is friendly and welcoming without being in any way intrusive (but always on hand if any problem arises). It is a superb place to go to.

Absolute perfection. The cottage was beautiful, superbly equipped and in a stunning location. We arrived to a spotless, cosy home-from-home. Everything in the cottage is high quality including comfortable bed and luxury linen. There wasnt a thing that we needed that wasnt there. Lesley and her team have thought of everything. Loved our stay!

The cottage was clean and modern with rustic touches. We were greeted with fresh milk, eggs and some treats too. The farm where the cottage was situated was peaceful and friendly. Everything was up to standard.
